METHOD AND MEANS FOR MAKING INDEXES OR THE LIKE.

Application filed June 29, 1925. Serial No. 40,321.

This invention relates to indexes or files composed generally of individual card-like elements, and to the method and means of developing such an index from predetermined data, so that each element will have the data required to be imprinted or otherwise indicatcd thereon, disposed in substantially the same location upon the surface thereof.

More particularly, this invention relates to the method and means for making an index or file composed of a series of card-like members wherein the members are arrangedin such a manner that a margin or other portion of each is exposed to View, whereby a user may readily observe the data imprinted or otherwise indicated upon said exposed margin or other card portion. The general practice in the past of making an index or file of this or similar type, has been to place the data upon the margin or other exposed portion of the card-like index element by means of a typewriter or in writing or in lettering by an individual, and because of the nature of these operations only one card or index element could be so provided with data at a time. Another method of preparing cards for such an index has recently been suggested, which is shown in Patent No. 1,530,107 issued to E. Coleman and dated March 17 1925, wherein indexelements of a card-like form are imprinted with the required data one at a time by means of the use of an attachment to an addressing machine.

Such methods are satisfactory where only a few cards are re uired at a time, or where perhaps one list 0 cards is required from a previously arranged list upon addressing machine type plates, or other transfer devices, but they are not economical where a number of duplicate lists or indexes are required, especially those wherein there are a comparatively large number of index elements of individual card-like form. This is especially true in cases of temporary lists of new sub scribers and changes thereof, such as required in large telephone exchanges for the use of the information operators and others, or of a new installation of lists or indexes of subcribers or customers for such companies'as telephone, telegraph, large department stores, credit bureaus, and the like. Such lists, especially the temporary ones and in indexes wherein many changes take place and which require a number of duplicate lists of index elements, when made by the methods generally in use in the past, have been found to appreciably increase the cost of development of such indexes or thecost of the maintenance thereof. Thiscost has been largely due to the class of labor necessary to produce the lists, one card at a time, and to the possible errors, omissions, misfiling and losses occasioned by the necessary handling of large numbers of the index elements by various individuals.

It is desirable, therefore, in the development of an index or file, that the data be first arranged systematically and then be retained in such order until finally disposed in a proper receptacle or other holder, and that the various operations intermediate the first arrangement and the final disposition of the index elements be of an easily and readily understood nature so that even so-called unskilled labor may be employed to perform the same. For like reasons, the devices used for these intermediate operations should be readily manipulated, the movable parts of which are easily arranged and adjusted.

- The principal object of this invention, therefore, is to provide an improved method for making indexes or files of the above noted types, by the use of which the cost of such indexes is appreciably decreased and errors,

omissions, and misfilings are reduced to a minimum whereby the index 'or file finally obtained is of maximum value due to its accuracy and form and in thearrangement of the data thereon.

Another object of the invention is to pro vide means for making such an index or file by the method provided, said means being eflicient in operation and readily manipu-' lated.

Another object of this invention is to provide a device whereby an index or file may be made by the improved method and wherein cardlike elements in multiple may be imprinted with the required data while being in proper position for intermediate transfer to -the holder or carrier of the index equip ment without disarrangement of the order thereof.

Still another objectof this invention is to provide such a device which is capable of duplicatingpredetermined data upon a number of sets or series of card-like elements arranged in multiple so thqt the data received and in the novel features and arrangements of parts and combinations thereof to be hereina fter described and claimed.

The type of index shown in the drawings and hereinafter described, which the features of this invention are particularly adapted to make and for which the device shown is especially adaptable for performing one of the principal operations thereof, is of the overlapping form wherein the individual cardlike elements are arranged substantially fiatwise in a frame or holder, one upon the other, and wherein means of some form is provided whereby a margin of each of the elementsof which an index or file may be made by the novel method and the novel features of this invention. In this instance, the selected card-like element is of the typewhereby a series of them may be retained in overlapped relation with a margin of each exposed .to view. A rear view of a series of these elements is illustrated in Fig. 11, in which the individual elements 10 are provided with struckout tongues 11, the bases of which are spaced a predetermined amount from one margin 12 of the cord or element. Another card when nested between the tongues 11 and the body of the card and the marginal edge 13 thereof, is engaged by the base-portions 11 of the tongue, will have its opposite margin 15 extended, beyond the corresponding marginal edge of the first mentioned element, and therefore, exposed to view, as shown in Figs. 3 and 7. The tongues 11 of this par ticular form of index element 10 are also adapted to-engage a supporting frame and retain the index element thereon by having the tongue portion 16 extend beyond the side edges 18 of the supporting strip 17, as indicated in dotted lines in Figs. 11 and 12. The patent to Irving Fisher, No. 1,048,056 dated December 24, 1912, shows and fully describes this type of index element.

Figs..13 and 14 illustrate other series of other forms of overlapping elements wherein a margin is likewise exposed to view. In Fig. 13 the elements 19 are interlocked by means of the tongues 20 engaging the card next above within a slot or slit 21, and after a plurality of such cards are so interlocked the entire series may be suspended, if desired, from .a suitable support such as a nail or the like, which is passed through the opening 22. For a more detailed description of this form of index element reference is made to the patent to Daniel A. Wilcox, bio-1,531,893, dated March 31, 1925. In Fig. 14, the-elements 23 are provided with struck-out tongues 2-1,

which in so far as the possibility of obtaining the required overlap is concerned, are analogous to the tongues 11 of the previously described element 10. The tongues 2-1 of the element 23, however, do not assist in retaining the elements upon a frame or holder. Such engagement is obtained by laterally extending a portion of each of the side edges or, as shown in Fig. 14, the entire side edge of the element, sntiiciently to engage a frame member beneath opposing flanges 25 indicated in dotted lines on Fig 14. 1

The dev ce shown in the perspective views of Figs. 1 and 2, is in this instance, adapted to impress the required data upon the exposed margins of a plurality of any of the above or like types of card-like index ele-- ments substantially simultaneously, while at the same time retaining the elements in overlapped arrangement and in sequence. The particular means for impressing the data upon the index elements, in this instance, includes a stencil 26, but other means for obtaining impressions are possible, forinstance, the use of type plates or of duplicating ink and, therefore, the mechanisms for using the selected transfer device may differ somewhat from i the structure to be hereinafter described. The stencil 26- may be made from specially treated paper 27, if desired, which is capable of receiving the printing characters 28 when the same are impressed therein by the type of an ordinary typewriter, which disrupts the material of the paper at the points of contact and adapts it to allow ink or other suitable fluid to flow therethrough. Thespecially treated paper, by this means, is converted into a stencil usually after having been mounted on a holder of cardboard or the like 29.

The device illustrated comprises a base or standard 30 having upwardly extended side members 31 and 32. Ink rolls 33, 34 and 35 are pivotally supported between the side members 31 and 32. Of these rolls 33 is the ink container and contacts with roll 34. which is one of the ink transferring rolls. The roll 34 contacts with the roll 35. which is another ink transferring roll. The diameters of these rollers vary so that continuous lines or spots of ink will not be formed upon either roller, about its periphery. An inking roller 36 is provided which is pivotally connected to and supported by a swinging carrier, pivoted to the side members 31 and 32 at 37, and which comprises the side arms 38 and 39, which are interconnected atthe remot ends thereof by a handle 40. The roller 36 is also pivoted between the arms 41 of an opcrating holder having an operating handle 42 secured thereto. An engaging hook 43 is sccured to the handle 42 and is adapted to hook under the handle when the parts of the device are in the position shown in Fig. 1. The inking roller 36 is also provided with a rotating'handle 44 by which the roller is rotated when in contact with the roller 35 andin the position shown in Fig. 1, whereby ink is supplied to it from the ink-roll 33 through the ink transferring rollers 34 and 35.

A transfer device of stencil plate holder 45 is provided. The holder 45 comprises an attaching portion 46 by which the holder is ad- 'ustably secured to the base 30 and a swingable portion 47, which is hinged at 48 to the portion 46. The attaching portion 46 of this holder is clamped bet-ween the pairs of blocks 49 and 50, and 51 and 52, by means of bolts53. The blocks and 52 loosely slide in longitudinally elongated 55 and 56 are rotatably connected to the blocks 50 and 52, respectively. and extend outwardly therefrom through the wall 57 of the standard 216. being in threaded engagement therewith, whereby the rotation of these openings 54 pro- 'vided in the standard 30. Adpistmg screws screws will cause the blocks 50 and 52, to-

gether with the attached parts 46 and 47 to be moved'relatively longitudinally in respect to the standard 30. Due to the loose sliding fit between the respective blocks 50 and 52 and the openings 54, these screws may also cause lateral shifting of the holder portion 47 in respect to the standard 30 when either one of the screws 55 or 56 is rotated more or less than the o her. For instance, if the screw 55 is not rotated and the screw 56 is rotated, the block 52 will be moved either forwardly or rearwardly, depending upon the direction of rotation, and if the block 52 is moved forwardly then the holder 45 will be shifted laterally to assume a position shown exaggerated in dotted lines in Fig. 3. The possibility, therefore, of both lateral and longitudinal shifting of the holder 45 allows the trfinsfer device when mounted thereon to be moved relatively tothe index element-s located beneath the same, so that the data thereon may be aligned with the marginal edges or other exposed portions of a series of index elements. After properly locating the transfer device holder bv means of screws 55 and 56, the same may be located in position by means of the lock nuts 58. The transfer device or stencil plate 26 is detachably secured to the holder 45, in any desirable manner, such as by means of the straight pins 59 and the forwardly hooked pins 60, which engage the stencil plate 26 within suitable openings therein.

An opening 61 is provided in the portion 47 of the holder 45, and is located therein in proper position to be disposed below the transfer device, in this instance, the stencil portion 27. Beneath the opening 61 in the holder 45, and removably seated in a supporting portion 62 of the standard 30 is an index clement carrier 63. The index element carslightly rier 63 comprises a base blo k 64 to which is fastened an element engaging strip 65, an element supporting strip 66 and adjustable side strips 67 and 68. The base block 64 is hollowed out as shown in Figs. 9 and 10, to form a base-plate 69, end walls 70 and 71 and side walls 72 and 73. The element engaging strip is secured to the end wall by any desired means, such as screws 74, and the element supporting strip is secured to the endwall 71 by similar means, such as screws 75-. The strip 65 extends above the baseplate 69 and is turned over and extends along the same to form a flange portion 76. The strip 66 extends above the plate 69 and'is turned over and extends along the same, and gradual y extends toward the surface thereof until in contact therewith to form an inclined supporting portion 77.

The side strips against the side walls 72 by means of the headed 67 and '68 are retained and 7 3, respectively, screws 79. A reinof the side strips 67 and 68. The screws 79 pass through elongated openings 80 provided in the side strips 67 and 68, respectively, and in the reinforcing strip 78, and are then threaded into the side walls 72'and 73, respectively. The openings 80 are disposed in the side strips 67 and 68 in such a manner that the strips are allowed vertical movement relatively to the plate 69. Each of the side strips extendsabove and is turned over and extends along the plate 69 to form opposed flange portions 81 and 82, respectively. End portions 83 and 84 of the flange portions 81 and 82 are flared outwardly from the base block 64 to assist in guiding the edges of index elements being placed thereunder.

A red 85 extends across the block 64 being supported by the side walls 72 and 73, in bearings 86. The rod 85 is provided with a handle 87 for rotating the same and at each end extends beyond the side walls. The extended ends of the rod 85 are reduced in diameter in sucha manner that eccentric trunnions 88 are formed. The trunnions 88 pass through the side strips 67 and 68 and the plates 78 in elongated openings 89, which are disposed horizontally or parallel with the suitably supported by the supporting porbaseplate 69.

From the above description the following operation of the device will be apparent. A stencil or other data transferring device is provided upon which the required data has.

been -arranged, which in this instance, consists of a series of names of 1nd1v1duals with their telephone numbers, 1n such'a manner that each line of imprint will be uniformly.-

spaced from another. The stencil 26 is placed upon the holder 45 by engagement with the pins 59 and 60. A series of blank index elements arearranged in overlapping relation whereby a marginal edge of one is exposed beyond another. This series of index element blanks is then slipped into a carrier, like 64, being located therein by engagement beneath the flange 76 of the strip 65, and

tion 77 of the strip 66. The side flanges 81 and 82, respectively, overlying the side edges of the index elements are now depressed into clamping engagement with these edges of the index element by rotating the rod 85 so as to operate the eccentric ends 88 thereof in the openings 89 of the side strips 67 and 68 to draw the same downwardly toward the plate 69.

The carrier 63 with the series of index element blanks is then placed into the supporting seat 62 of the standard 30, where it is properly located by engagement with the sides of the'opening 90 provided in the top plate 91 thereof. The stencil holder 45 is then disengaged from a catch member 92, which by means of a groove 93 springably engages the edge of the holder portion 45, and is swung downwardly upon the standard 30 above the series of index elements. The stencil 28 being, in this instance, made of specially pre Jared transparent paper allows the user to o serve the marginal edges of the index element blanks therethrough and to ascertain if the characters upon the stencil are in proper alignment therewith to cause a properly arranged imprint thereon. In case the characters upon thestenoil are not in proper alignment with the marginal edges, the adjustment above described regarding the stencil holder 45 is made, after which the inking roller is swung downwardly in its frame by means of the handle 40 and is rolled over the stencil 27 by means of the handle 44, the parts above described being in a position as shown in Fig. 2.

After the above operations have taken place the inking roller 36 is returned to the position shown in Fig. 1, the transfer device is removed from operative position by swinging up the holder portion 46, and the carrier 63 .with the imprinted index elements is removed from the standard 30. A new transfer device or stencil may now be substituted or the same one may be used again. depending able to continue the above operations upon other series of index element blanks clamped in similar carriers 63. 7

After being imprinted with the desired data the index elements are unclamped from the carrier 63 and slipped therefrom and then without disturbing the sequence of the series may be placed intoth'c final filing frame suitable to retain the same. Due to the particular internesting feature of the form of index elements shown in Figs. 11 and 14, the series of elements is more readily arranged in overlapping relation and will also be more readily inserted into and slipped from the carrier 63 without disarrangement than elements not having this feature, care'being -re quired merely to insure that the same are not disarranged laterally while so doing. The form shown in Fig. 13, however, does not require even the care required regarding the lateral disarrangement, the elements being interlocked against both longitudinal and lat eral movement'relative to each other, while L in the carrier 63 the flange 76 locates these forms longitudinally by engagement with the lowermost card and the side flanges 81 and 82 prevent lateral movement thereof in addition device shown, provides an easily operated and inexpensive method for making indexes or the like, the accuracy of arrangement and data being determined at the initial source, it being duplicated more or less automatically thereafter.
